I don't like this idea. It's inconsistent with the behavior of the other traps, it relies too subtly on a funky stateful idiom, and it's hard to predict when the traps will actually fire (since it depends on how clients use the proxy). If there's something being set once-and-for-all I prefer it to happen up front and explicitly.
